Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. First Things in Acadia The Birthplace of a Continent (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Parts of Maine, Quebec, Newfoundland); by John Quinpool; fifth thousand; Copyright 1936, all rights reserved; First Things Publishers Limited, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. From the Preface An initial effort has been made to sift and assemble under one cover, many important FIRST THINGS largely of National or Continental character, which distinguish north-east sections of United States and Canada, a district known to fame as the Acadian area, which is the memorial site of John Cabot s Discovery of the Mainland of the Western Hemisphere. First Things in Acadia contains 100 chapters and upwards of 250primary occurrences. Subjects have been carefully checked, but in a multiplicity of tricky Firsts there are bound to be errors, and corrections and additions are cordially invited. In a popular publication, it is not practicable to insert copious footnotes, but supporting material has been filed and will be gladly placed at disposal of interested inquirers. This book bound in red, pebbled leather is in near-fine condition. There are black and white illustrations throughout the volume. The endpapers are gray with speckled silver dots. A very well-made volume and a fascinating study, indeed, especially for those in Acadia!
